Because we care about roads

Here are a couple of notes about roads of particular interest to East Manatee residents:

Mill Creek Bridge on Upper Manatee River Road is under repair. From May 25 through July 6, no vehicle weighing more than five tons will be allowed to cross. That includes Waste Pro trucks, school buses,construction and delivery vehicles.

Any questions, contact Chad Butzow, the county's deputy public works director at 708-7432.

In the Parrish area,the county's public works department will hold a public information meeting on roads 7 p.m. Thursday, May 27, in the Parrish Community Center, formerly known as the old Parrish school house. The public is invited.
